I booked a hotel two days ago on booking.com. In an act of sheer stupidity, I didn't realise I booked without free cancellation. Got an email today to say there was a problem with my card.

Is this hotel able to charge my card even if there's no money in it? 

I found another hotel today with free cancellation and just went and booked this as I'm pissed off with the hotel on my original booking. Can I get out of this without paying anything? I'm hoping they just try to take money again and if there's nothing in my account, they'll just cancel it on their side. 

I had something similar, just didn't top up my Revolut card for a while, and they didn't get my money

I'm sure most regular booking.com users would be aware of this but if you're ever making bookings, do it through the app rather than desktop as a lot of the time there's a mobile only discount in addition to your genius one. 

Was looking at Key West in the summer and it's very expensive for accommodation but checked the app and there's cheaper options that are not on the desktop site with the mobile only discount.

I'd add one thing. If you find a hotel that you're happy with on booking.com, always check the price on the hotel's own website before booking as booking.com isn't always cheaper.

Sure Muff knows all about Key West as it's his back door he will need to worry about . 

It's a top spot and a great drive down from the north of FL .
